How do you say this aircraft?

Just wondering,
I say Seven-Three-Seven

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.

Usually seven-three-seven, but sometimes just seven three.

it all depends on the model...

a -300 is a "SEVen TREE TREE"
a -400 is a "SEVen TREE FOW-er"
a -800 is a "SEVen TREE AIT"

but I have no idea what an NG is :)

So I guess, I would have to go with Seven Three... as its the closest.

Apologies for the cryptic writing, but I was going back over my old FRTO notes and found the section on pronunciation ;)

The new Generation 737s, I think that's the models 600, 700, 800 and 900.

No... I mean I dont know how they say 737-NG... because its not a 700 or 800 or 900... as the pilots keep telling my wife "I am endorsed on the NG".

So i would guess it will be something like 'Seven Three N"

The 737NG isn't a particular model, it's the family of 737s from 600 to 900.If I was referring to the NG series, I would say something like the "New Generation 737s".

Refer to here.

*hopes I'm right*

Yep, the NG models of the 737 are the -600 through -900. :)
